Editorial.

Editorial.
Special attention is called to an article
on the first page referring to the persecu-
tion of Socialists and the Fourteenth ward
club of the United Labor Party. Later
intelligence reveals the fact that il is even
worse than was at first supposed. The
Merritt bill has not yet become law, but
the police are already carrying things
with high hand, apparently secure in
their power to suppress free speech. 1; is
now stated that the police have notified
the owners of all halls and meeting places
in the city where Socialists are supposed
to congregate, that no meetings will be
permitted for the purpose of criticizing
the general government, the state or city
authorities. or to create sympathy for the
condemned eight. No protest meetings
will be allowed, or any meeting for the
purpose of arrousing fresh discomfort.
In this connection il is in order to quote
from much talked of but little under
stood document, which should be dear to
the hearts of all American citizens. The
first amendent to the constitution of the
United States provides that;
Congress shall make no law abriding
the freedom of speech or of the press, or
the right of the people to, peaceably as
semble.
The duty of the injured citizens is
plain. The constitution of the United
States is above all statuatory enactments.
The right of free speech is sacred and
should be maintained at all hazards and
against all odds. II is the bulwark of
liberty and must be guarded as sacredly
as individual honor and truth. Let the
readers of the Enquirer turn to the last
page of No. 81 of this paper Qast weeks
issue) and carefully read again the letter
under the caption of The Conspiracy"
in which the following sentences occur:
Is there public place in Chicago
where public meetings are held for other
purposes as of common right! II so we
must hold meetings there. THE police
will interfere" you say: No; we shall
have our meetings guarded by federal
troops from the garrison our foes have
provided. What do l mean! mean
precisely what l say-that we can have
federal troops to guard us while We hold
meetings, and to eternally eat up any po-
liceman that dares come near us.
In this connection attention is called to
the recent speech of Colonel 1ngersoll,
concerning the liberty of speech.
Americans. Read and ponder! The
oft-redeated query, "whither are we drift
ing." is clamoring for an answer.

DUBLIN June s.-The gunboat Banterer
took the sheriff of County Glare and a

where they evicted twelve tenants. The
scenes witnessed while the writs of evic

And II They Devour Thirty.Cent
Meal He Knows That They
Are Thieves!

A stout, we'll dressed man sauntered in.
to the lunch-room connected with one OF
the uptown dry-goods stores the other
day. His keen, blue eyes took in. the oc.
cupants of the room, but he seemed to be
entirely occupied with his thoughts as he
stood at one of the windows, apparently
looking out into the street.
A little cash girl came into the room
and sat down at one of the tables rsserved
for employees. In moment she was Joined
by another cash girl and this converse
tion ensued:
Mary" said the first little girl, ''what
are you going to have for lunch?"
II am going to have sandwich and
glass of milk" replied Mary.
20, l am going to have more than that"
said the first girl, with nod; 'my mother
gave me a quarter to spend for lunch"
The stout man did not appear to pay
any attention to this conversation, but
when the two girls had finished and gone
away he walked up to the waiter and
asked:
"What did Lille German buy?"
''She bought chicken salad and ice
cream" replied the waiter. )
"How much did it costg"
"Thirty CENTS" was the reply.
The stout man nodded, ard walked
down stairs to where the shop girls were
busily floating around. Quickly singing
out the one he was in search of he called
her aside into a room which was fitted
up like an Office.
"Now, Lillie," he said, 81 want you to
tell me where you got the money to pay
for your expensive lunch to day"
Lille turned all the colors of the rain
bow, but assuming an air of innocence,
said:
II got it from mother"
every WE'LL" said the stout man.
"Where does your mother live: l am
going up to see her and ask her about it."
The little rogue was now thoroughly
frightened and burst into tears. After
short interval she confessed and burst in
to tears. After short interval she con
fessed that she had stolen the money from
a parcel. She received a severe talking
to, after which she was taken before the
superintendent and discharged.
"These young ones are the torment of
my life," said the detective to the report
er. "Many of them are as expert as pro-
fessionals at thieving, and can lie with the
assurance of boss buncO steerer. Every
day word comes from one of the counters
that wrong change has been received. O,
of course the cash girl didn't take it! The
tears well up in her eyes, and you feel like
kicking yourself for having breathed a
word against such cherub All the time
she is lying like small-sized Satan. The
first question a detective asks himself
when he suspects a person of theft is:
What has become of the booty? Then he
waits to see the thief dispose of it. That's
what do with these little thieves; I find
that when they steal their natural desire
is to get rid of their money right away.
The lunch counter is the place where they
come to do it. When see one of them
indulging nluxuries and eating as much
in one day as she earns in two then know
the cause and make no bones of accusing
her right away.

These little tots aged from 10 to 13

this opportunity of showing their
offensive ofiicialism, and ordered the
meetings to be discontinued, darkly hint
ing that broken heads and limbs would be
the penalty of refusal to obey the CON-
mand. Mr.. Timmerhoff also was notified
that If he permitted the club to continue
their meetings his license would be re-
voked. At last the persecution became
so unbearable that a committee was ap-
pointed to call upon Chief Eversold and
state the grievance of the club. Ebersold
promised to investigate the matter, and
when called upon few days later he
handed the committee the following
letter, which speaks for itself:
CHICAGO, May 1s.
Fred Ebersold, General Sup't of Police:
SR:-I respectfully submit that the
place as referred to by Mr.. Stauber, No.
703 Milwaukee avenue, is hall connected
with the saloon kept by Mr.. Fred Tim
merhof, and was reported on unfavora-
bly, by Captain Hathaway and myself
when Mr.. Timmerhoff made application
for license. Anarchists and Socialistic
clubs were in the habit Of meeting there,
and on account of such meetings the
place bore bad character. On or about
the ninth of May Captain Hathaway had
a c0nveration with Mr.. Timmerhoff, in
which the latter agreed to conduct his sa-
loon in accordance with law and order,
and keep all known Anarchists and others
dissatisfied with the laws of this country
out of his place. On this agreement he
subsequently procured license, and in
fulfllment Of this agreement he has to
keep what Mr.. Struber calls the Four
teenth ward club of the United Labor
Party out of his place; the members of
which are Anarchists. On the night of
the twelfth inst. the officer on post report
ed through the patrol box that this club
was going to meet at Mr.. Timmerhoff's,
but told the officer to notify Mr.. Tim
merhof that il he allowed the club to
meet in his place would report the mat
ter to you and that probably his license
would be revoked. Respectfully, etc,
CHAs. II. JOHNSON,
Lieutenant Commanding District.
The club still continues to hold meet
ings and will persist in its right to do so
as long as place of assembly can be
found. If the authorities are disposed to
push the matter they discover that citi-
zens have rights which even the police and

are, are bound to respect

CHAPTER. XIV

The last night that we ever spent to-
gether was very quiet one. We sung
but httle-only the usual number Of
hymns in our worship. But we talked
late and thoughtfully We were never all
to meet again in this world. and the sha-
dow OF the separation was already upon
us.
The next day was long and tedious.
All our usual exercises had lost their zest,
and we could do little but discuss in low
tones the coming effort. We would not
risk an attack In the morning. for that
would have given our enemies all day to
search for us. 1t was far better to wait
for evening, even il the day seemed we'll
nigh endless. Slowly the sun rose up,
reached the meridian and disappeared be-
hind the jail. We watched the shadow
slowly moving up the hill opposite our
window till it had well nigh reached the
line on the summit that usually marked
our supper time. The hour was come.
We shook hands with strong, lingering
clasp, for we knew not how many of US
might be cold in death before the stars
came out. Capt. Fry, who was tender
hearted rs . child, wept at the parting
He had two coats, and as he had imme-
date use for one only he loaned the other
to me. 1t was . wonderful boon, for I
WAS nearly destitute Of clothing. Every
thing that we felt ought to be taken we
secured about us, so as not 10 be in the
way OF the coming struggle. We still had
on hand lot Of books belonging to Rev.
George MacDonell, who had sent them in
not long before. We had not dared to re-
turn them for fear Of arousing suspicion,
aud l carefully piled them in the corner

What Am I To Do?

The symptoms of Blousness are unhappi-
ly but too well known. They differ in
different individuals to some extent. A
Bilious man is seldom breakfast eater
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of a
morning. His tongue will hardly bear in
spection at any time; if it is not white and
furred, it is rough at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of order
and DiarrhTa or Constipation may be symp-
tom or the two may alternate. There are
often Hemorrhoids or even loss of blood.
There may be giddiness and often headache
acidity or latulence and tenderness in the pit
of the stomach. To correct all this if not
effect a cure try Green's August Flower, it
costs but trifle and thousands attest its eff
cacy.
